Britney is upset with Halsey’s "Lucky" video: "I feel harassed, violated, and bullied... I'm speaking with my lawyers"

Oh boy... I don't know what to say at this point tbh.

The song is harmless, and the video is not at all offensive.

My thoughts exactly. This time I can't understand it.

I mean I guess I can see why she'd be offended, with the blood drawing, shaved head, etc. but it seems drawn from Halseys life...

Didnt halsey say britney was nice to her about it omg here we go yall buckle up

[sodapopbritney]

I had a feeling she wouldn’t like it.

I assume Halsey asked for permission for the song but didn’t explain the concept. I can see how Britney takes this as impersonating her and her story since it involves her song. I don’t think that’s what Halsey was going for but I get it. I like Halsey but it was pretty daring to go with that imo.. 

Its a sensitive topic. I cringed when I saw the shaved head reveal

Yeah 😔 that makes me wonder if she is the one responding though like did she write her back did she get a call? 

[ElectricPlatypusLove]

Oh darn. Once again I think Britney is just sick of people using her like an avatar to sell their own brands. I had really hoped she was in on this and it had her blessing. I felt the lyrics demonstrated empathy and admiration for someone in Britney's position but Britney has already established that she does not like her name or image used by others for their own self promotion and I can definitely see how this veers into that territory.

 Did she not know??! I haven't seen the video but everyone was saying it was... harmless?

Thank you, I didn't understand the comments below the video, it was so bad, reductive and simplistic. I don't understand how people can like that kind of thing. 

 

[nwonder]

Yeah… as soon as I saw the head shaving I saw this coming.

 

She’s still quite sensitive about that the time… highlighted by her hatred of the docs.

the music video is just bad, opportunistic and simplistic

I see... Well i'm glad she's speaking out on things she hates and she has every right to feel the way she does.

I mean

(This is what I think triggered her, I know the video is about Halsey’s story)

Using someone's private life in such a reductive way and for commercial purposes is not harmless.

Cade probably approved it. If her team is going to approve something they need to make sure to control Britney’s response and ensure her alignment. This is messy

Britney has no ability to see nuance and story anymore - she just reacts blindly in rage. 

No other artist should try and reference her again tbh. It’s just not worth it 

[Mayenaise]

The only thing I think could be triggering is the giving blood scenes and hair shaving... But what a weird song this girl is completely talentless it's just the Lucky chorus over & over.....
